Zeroes

Remove units with 0 value for deg/min and deg/min/sec

Select to hide units that have a value of zero, for example, when selected, 73º0'37" displays as 73º37".

Trailing zeroes

Remove Trailing zeroes do not appear.
Remove only on zero

Removes trailing zeroes from each tolerance when the displayed value is zero. Also, when the value of the displayed tolerance is not equal to zero, trailing zeroes are displayed up to the number of decimal places that apply to each tolerance in the dimension.
